    Findings from Tsinghua University Provides New Data on Robotics (A Robust Robot Perception Framework for Complex Environments Using Multiple Mmwave Radars)

According to news reporting out of Beijing, People's Repu blic of China, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "The robust perception of env ironments is crucial for mobile robots to operate autonomously in complex enviro nments. Over the years, mobile robots mainly rely on optical sensors for percept ion, which degrade severely in adverse weather conditions." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Tsinghua University , "Recently, singlechip millimeter-wave (mmWave) radars have been widely used f or mobile perception, owing to their robustness to all-weather conditions, light weight design, and low cost. However, existing research based on mmWave radars p rimarily focuses on single radar and single task. Due to the limited field of vi ew and sparse observation, perception based on a single radar may not ensure the required robustness in complex environments. To address this challenge, we prop ose a novel robust perception framework for robots in complex environments based on multiple mmWave radars, named MMR-PFR. The framework integrates three critic al tasks for robots, including ego-motion estimation, multi-radar fusion mapping , and dynamic target state estimation. Multiple tasks collaborate and facilitate each other to improve overall performance. In the framework, we propose a new m ulti-radar point cloud fusion method to generate a more accurate environmental m ap. In addition, we propose a new online calibration algorithm for multiple rada rs to ensure the long-term reliability of the system. To evaluate MMR-PRF, we bu ild a prototype and carry out experiments in real-world scenarios."

    Researchers at China University of Geosciences Report New Data on Robotics (A Se lf-learning Memetic Algorithm for Human-robot Collaboration Scheduling In Energy -efficient Distributed Mixed Fuzzy Welding Shop)

    150-151页
    查看更多>>摘要:2024 OCT 09 (NewsRx)-By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News-Investigators publish new report on Robotics. Acc ording to news reporting out of Wuhan, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx edi tors, research stated, "Due to the impact of economic globalization, distributed welding shop has become prevalent in real-world manufacturing systems. Moreover , focusing on human-centric, sustainable and resilient industry, Industry 5.0 pu ts more emphasis on human-robot collaboration (HRC) for its merit in promoting s ystem flexibility and adaptability." Financial supporters for this research include National Natural Science Foundati on of China (NSFC), Key Research and Development Program Project in Hubei Provin ce. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the China Universit y of Geosciences, "However, owing to the instability of human performance, it be comes necessary to employ fuzzy processing time to simulate practical human prod uction. In the context of Industry 5.0, HRC scheduling in distributed mixed fuzz y welding shop is worth exploring, but no related research on this problem is re ported. Thus, to address this research gap, this paper investigates a human-robo t collaboration energy-efficient distributed mixed fuzzy welding shop scheduling problem (EDMFWSP-HRC), aiming to minimize makespan and total energy consumption (TEC). To solve this issue, a self-learning memetic algorithm (SLMA) is propose d. In SLMA, a hybrid initialization is designed to yield a high-quality initial population. A genetic operator is proposed to improve the exploration capability . A self-learning variable neighborhood search (SLVNS), which hybridizes Q-learn ing and VNS, is developed to enhance the exploitation capability. A resource adj ustment strategy is presented to further optimize TEC. Additionally, to validate the effectiveness of the proposed SLMA, extensive experimental comparisons with 5 other optimization algorithms are conducted. Experimental results illustrate that SLMA outperforms its competitors. Note to Practitioners-Owing to the widesp read presence in manufacturing systems, distributed welding shop has attracted c onsiderable attention in both industry and academia. In the context of Industry 5.0, the incorporation of human-robot collaboration (HRC) scheduling in distribu ted welding shop can promote system productivity and flexibility. Meanwhile, due to the instability of human performance, employing fuzzy processing time to sim ulate human production more aligns with the practical manufacturing scenario. Th us, this paper investigates a human-robot collaboration energy-efficient distrib uted mixed fuzzy welding shop scheduling problem (EDMFWSP-HRC). This problem mod el can be utilized in many welding manufacturing enterprises with HRC production mode. To solve this problem, we design a self-learning memetic algorithm (SLMA) to minimize both makespan and total energy consumption (TEC). The design of all components in SLMA is based on the characteristics of problem. The SLMA can off er the low-energy and high-efficiency schedules for practitioners."

    Researcher from University of Adelaide Publishes Findings in Machine Learning (D omain Adaptation for Satellite-Borne Multispectral Cloud Detection)

    152-153页
    查看更多>>摘要:Current study results on artificial in telligence have been published. According to news originating from Adelaide, Aus tralia, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "The advent of satellite-born e machine learning hardware accelerators has enabled the onboard processing of p ayload data using machine learning techniques such as convolutional neural netwo rks (CNNs)." Funders for this research include Smartsat Crc. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from University of Adela ide: "A notable example is using a CNN to detect the presence of clouds in the m ultispectral data captured on Earth observation (EO) missions, whereby only clea r sky data are downlinked to conserve bandwidth. However, prior to deployment, n ew missions that employ new sensors will not have enough representative datasets to train a CNN model, while a model trained solely on data from previous missio ns will underperform when deployed to process the data on the new missions. This underperformance stems from the domain gap, i.e., differences in the underlying distributions of the data generated by the different sensors in previous and fu ture missions. In this paper, we address the domain gap problem in the context o f onboard multispectral cloud detection."

    Data on Intelligent Transport Systems Discussed by Researchers at Nottingham Tre nt University [The Accessibility of Public Electric Vehicle ( Ev) Charging Infrastructure: Evidence From the Cities of Nottingham and Frankfur t]

    153-154页
    查看更多>>摘要:2024 OCT 09 (NewsRx)-By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News-Investigators publish new report on Transportatio n - Intelligent Transport Systems. According to news reporting originating in No ttingham, United Kingdom, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "The distribut ion of public electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure is a widespread appr oach for promoting EV adoption and decarbonising transportation. A significant a mount of literature explores the distribution of EV charging points at a country scale, but there is a lack of studies focusing on a district scale." Financial supporters for this research include Horizon 2020, European Union (EU) . The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Nottingham Trent Univ ersity, "This study aims to contribute to this gap by gaining insights into the distribution of EV charging points per district within cities, such as Nottingha m and Frankfurt. The study investigates the current distribution of EV charging points across 38 postcode districts in Frankfurt and 9 postcode districts in Not tingham, using geographical data analysis and a linear regression approach. The following factors in response to the number of EV charging points per postcode d istrict (ZIP code) are examined: the percentage of apartment buildings/floor are a ratio, the availability of amenities, population, charging capacity (kW), area size, strategic approaches, including policy goals and principles. The results reveal disparities in access to EV charging infrastructure across districts and underscore the importance of expanding EV charging networks not only in district s located near urban centres or those with high availability of amenities but al so ensuring that users without home charging options are not left behind."
